I've been sitting here on Mount Olympus for years as Odysseus traveled to Troy to fight and as he struggled to get home. It's so aggravating watching these suitors plunder his home. Just wait until I get my hands on these guys. For them to steal from Odysseus and take advantage of Penelope is horrendous. Good thing she's not fooled by them.
Finally, Odysseus is home! Now let the blood bath begin. Well, it would if my sister Athena would leave him alone. There she goes with her planning again. She did this in Troy too when all we really needed to do was attack, attack, attack. But no, she had to strategically plan everything. That's why we were there for 10 years! And here we go again. Odysseus tells Telemachus to wait. This better not take too long, although I will admit I like the fact that Telemachus gets to hide all of the weapons so the suitors have none to fight back with. That means more hand-to-hand combat, my specialty.
As I watch Odysseus return home, it must be unbelievably hard to stand for all of the taunting he receives, especially from that arrogant idiot Antinous. Little does he know that he is insulting the very King of this island. What a fool! He's stolen from Penelope, plotted to kill Telemachus, and now he insults this beggar? He has absolutely no respect for the Gods because Athena's disguise for Odysseus may as well be Athena herself. The way Antinous treats this stranger is pitiful and definitely needs to be handled. I'm sure Zeus will help aid in the revenge against him, if only he would give us that famous lightning signal. When that comes, we attack.
(I would continue here with my role in "Odysseus' Revenge" section and add my opinion that Athena calls for peace between the suitors' families and Odysseus at the end, which disappoints me even more that she's involved.)
